However, there will still be such a movie that stings your heart, even if you know The director and the screenwriter know the actors' actions. There are movies like that that will inevitably make you think about yourself and feel sad. Different people have the same loneliness, the same loneliness, the same good wishes, the same hard pursuits, and the same regrets. Different people have the same ending, that is, getting old and dying. Some people say they don't know why the English translation of Dongxiexidu is called Ashes of Time, but I wonder why it's not the other way around. This movie should be dedicated to all those who understand and those who don't, because understanding and incomprehension have their own sorrows.
"Do you know that I've been waiting for you for ten years?" Such lines have been said from the mouths of all kinds of men and women in many movies and TV series, often at the end or at the climax, and the audience's tears often burst at this time. This sentence When the words come out of the mouth of an actor who pretends to be vicissitudes of life, it is probably very light, just a few words, the director can put away his expression and eat lunch when he calls CUT. Those tears are probably very light when they flow from the eyes of the audience. After being immersed in a poignant story that has been created, you can walk out of the cinema for two hours and then go to work and school the next day. Those tears should be cleaned regularly. . That's why movies belong to entertainment, even tragic and tragic scenes, belong to the category of entertainment. Who can wait forever. In the end, people will persevere and pursue tirelessly all their lives, and they will always be the ones who most disdain to pursue. People can wait for a lifetime without forgetting and not getting bored. In the end, it is only fame and fortune, but no movie has ever told you that. The movie will always tell you that there are some people who have been waiting for love all their lives. That's why people watch movies. No one will go to the zoo to see kittens and puppies. People go to the zoo to see tigers and pandas.
When I was younger than now, I always wanted to do something big in this life, not for fame and fortune, but just to leave a name in history, lest there will be no trace of my existence in this universe after my grandchildren. I just simply want to leave a mark, in Chinese literal translation it means leaving a paw print. Later, I began to care about people's livelihood and suffering. I always wanted to help the common people and the world, and I was worried about the people even though I didn't live in the temple. For more than ten years, the personal heroism in my bones has been increasing day by day, and I feel that one day I will transform into a dynamic superman who saves the world. Especially when I went back to junior high school and talked about some learning experiences, I watched a group of little brothers and sisters follow the crowd and asked me for an autograph. I felt that I was still on the track of my dream until the end of high school, and I was still with Superman. The road is very close.
Later, in high school, I was hospitalized for more than a week because of a sudden heart attack. The doctor did various tests on my heart, but found nothing wrong. This result didn't make me feel safe at all, but it made me even more scared, because even today my heart still hurts a few times for no reason, and it's fleeting. At that time, I was lying alone in the ward on the highest floor of the hospital, and I could see most of the East Lake but still couldn't see the edge. I was so scared, I felt like if my heart suddenly started to ache and suddenly stopped beating, no one could save me. If my heart wants me to die, I can't help it. It is often at this time, when people truly fear that death is approaching, that they begin to realize that their previous hard pursuits are all vain. People often decide to abandon their desires and escape into the void after experiencing such fears, or on the contrary, become a complete hedonist.
I think I became the latter. From that time on, I began to understand that even if I could really govern the country and bring peace to the world and feed 6 billion people, I wouldn’t be able to make their lives more meaningful, nor could I make my life more meaningful. Farmers who can't afford to eat only want to eat meat. A worker who gets 1,000 yuan a month gets 2,000 yuan just to raise his salary to 3,000 yuan. Everyone remembers who invented the light bulb, but probably doesn't know who invented the camera.
That's when I began to understand that all I have to do and can do in my life is to make myself happier. And the most direct way to make yourself happy is to make the people you love happy. So I decided that my goal in life is to make myself and the people I love happy. At this time, I found it sadly that when I was about twenty years old, after thinking so much and turning around in such a big circle, I just returned to a life goal that can be found in a magazine such as Youth Digest. But maybe it's more unforgettable to experience it yourself than to read an essay on a reader.
Then I went to the US to study at university. Although I did not hesitate in the slightest when I made this decision, I am well aware of the dilemma I faced. I sacrificed the first half of my life for the second half of my life, and the second half of my life after going to the United States is not necessarily better than staying at home. In my short life, I want an equally happy first half of my life, so I try my best to make up for what I've lost. So I run back home on every possible holiday. American friends asked me, are your friends in China or your parents in China? I told them that everything about me, except this body, was in China.
I flew home with only a little over a week of spring break. One night I sat in the movie theater and watched the final version of East Evil West Poison. I watched the original one summer afternoon four years ago, while I sat idly at home with my notebook on my belly. I thought, at that time, sixteen years old I was probably too young. I'm like waiting for those scenes in the movie after watching the action scenes in the trailers of Hollywood blockbusters, waiting for them to appear in the movie after reading countless wonderful lines in the movie. When I was sixteen years old, I had already read a lot of film reviews. When watching the film, I carefully experienced every fluttering color mentioned in the reviews, every lonely voice, and the sadness behind every character's mask. I thought I got it all.
And four years later I sat in the movie theater crying. I don't know what Wong Kar-wai went through, but I imagined the eyes behind the sunglasses watching the set, and I guess he was making this movie for all those who were lost. Who has not lost anything. It doesn't really matter what each character in the movie is called, what they look like, or what story they have. Wong Kar-wai is like giving everyone who has been cut by a knife a second look at the skin that has been cut by the knife, so that when you look at the big screen, you will think of your own pain.
Ouyang Feng, played by Leslie Cheung, said that he was jealous when he saw Hong Qi and his wife walking away on a camel. He once had such an opportunity, but he gave up. How I didn't want to hear that at the time. It reminds me over and over again of my regrets. If I wasn't so cowardly, if I didn't have so many scruples, if I was brave enough to grab, brave enough to let go, would everything be a little better than now, would I stop at night when I can't sleep alone Remember those and regret it. But at the same time, I know that I haven't changed at all. I want to leave alone again, just like every previous departure, big or small, to run towards my unreachable dream. Facing the sea with spring flowers in bloom is always so incredible, I end up being driven by the inevitable. My heart is full of unease, I don't know if one day I will find that even if I have everything, I don't have a camel, I don't know if I will one day see someone riding a camel and taking his wife across the rivers and lakes envy. Hong Qi just let you know, you don't want to take your wife on a camel, you don't want to lose a finger for an egg, you will calculate, buy a pair of shoes for people like Hong Qi to earn a bigger one. difference. You pay to go to the cinema, just look at the mirror Wong Kar Wai showed you, take a look, see what you have become. He told you that maybe one day you will find out that you always thought you won, and you will know you lost when you look at you in the mirror. He told you that maybe one day you will burn your hard work. the inn. One day you will also look at other people's backs, want to drink a jar of drunken life and dream to forget everything, but the more you want to forget, the more you will remember. And you can't change all of this, you will see yourself slowly being swallowed up but you can't get out, you will see that you can't go back.
In East Evil and West Poison, everyone is waiting, but few people can wait. The peach blossoms are still the same, and the water is still flowing, but things change over time. Slowly the wrinkles on your face are getting more and more, you can't be younger. Know what to do. Those who should go will still go, and those who should wait will still have to wait. "At my best, I wasn't with her". The deepest pain is not that the boat hits an iceberg and you watch him freeze to death in the water, but that you buy a one-person ferry ticket even though you could stay.
That wounded heart hidden behind two masks, finally practiced swords against its own shadow on the water and became a master of the generation, known as Dugu Qiuwei. And the name of Dugu Qiubai itself is so lonely. You wait The man did not come in the end, you finally won the world but lost him. Let you swing your sword and it will be a huge wave, and there is no warm gaze behind you. You may become a legend, a small restaurant People talk about it, you are no longer a person, you are just a concept. Will you be happy, will you be satisfied. Even if you don't, what can you do, you can't do anything. Practicing swords with the reflection in the water makes your martial arts higher, and you have no opponents long ago. You go farther and farther alone, and who is waiting for you.
After you leave the peach blossoms in your hometown, you will no longer know that you will be able to survive in your lifetime. I can't see it. When the peach blossoms are in season, no one knows when the horse thief will come. Your eyes will slowly dry up, and your sun will slowly dim. Lose. Even if your sword can sting the sun, a person with a sword in his left hand will scratch a deep scar on your neck, and you will hear the sound of blood rustling. Your corpse will Unrecognizable in the desert of yellow sand, maybe occasionally someone will come and point you to teach some lessons to future generations, and your meaning will stop from then on. If you had known that you would fail, would you leave the country, would you go to that desert , If you had known that you would die there, that the peach blossoms could not wait for you to go back, would you be willing to watch the flowers bloom in your hometown and listen to the flowing water?
It turns out that I have been in the desert for so long, but I have never Look at this desert. Watching the situation change, the sun rises and the moon sinks, I realize that I have been away for so long.
When I have nothing to do, I will look at the White Camel Mountain. I may wish that I used to stay there without distractions, and I have left when I was so ambitious. Maybe I'm a lone star too. This second has passed, why didn't I grab your hand this second.
